More quotes by William Shakespeare
It comes to pass oft that a terrible oath, with a swaggering accent sharply twanged off, gives manhood more approbation than ever proof itself would have earned him.
William Shakespeare
Though inclination be as sharp as will, My stronger guilt defeats my strong intent, And, like a man to double business bound, I stand in pause where I shall first begin, And both neglect.
William Shakespeare
I do repent but heaven hath pleas'd it so To punish me with this, and this with me, That I must be their scourge and minister. I will bestow him, and will answer well The death I gave him. So again good night. I must be cruel only to be kind. Thus bad begins and worse remains behind.
William Shakespeare
Yield not thy neck To fortunes yoke, but let thy dauntless mind Still ride in triumph over all mischance.
William Shakespeare
The seeming truth which cunning times put on to entrap the wisest.
William Shakespeare
Alas, that love, so gentle in his view, Should be so tyrannous and rough in proof! *It’s sad. Love looks like a nice thing, but it’s actually very rough when you experience it.*
William Shakespeare
I do love nothing in the world so well as you- is not that strange?
William Shakespeare
With these shreds They vented their complainings, which being answered And a petition granted them, a strange one, To break the heart of generosity, And make bold power look pale, they threw their caps As they would hang them on the horns o' th' moon, Shouting their emulation.
William Shakespeare
Holy, fair, and wise is she The heaven such grace did lend her, That she might admired be.
William Shakespeare
A heavier task could not have been impos'd, Than I to speak my griefs unspeakable.
William Shakespeare
Alas, our frailty is the cause , not we! For, such as we are made of, such we be.
William Shakespeare
Doubt is a thief that often makes us fear to tread where we might have won.
William Shakespeare
You told a lie, an odious damned lie Upon my soul, a lie, a wicked lie.
William Shakespeare
How soar sweet music is, when time is broke, and no proportion kept!
William Shakespeare
What, with my tongue in your tail? nay, come again, Good Kate I am a gentleman.
William Shakespeare
The fewer men, the greater share of honor.
William Shakespeare
Keep thy foot out of brothels, thy hand out of plackets, thy pen from lender's books, and defy the foul fiend.
William Shakespeare
Ask God for temp'rance. That's th' appliance only Which your disease requires.
William Shakespeare
All the world is a stage and we are merely players.
William Shakespeare
There's a time for all things.
William Shakespeare
